CrowdStrike: Falcon for IT: PHP2Shell Detection and Remediation

PHP2Shell can allow attackers to execute code before application security checks run. Defenders need to answer three questions: Where are we exposed? Has exploitation occurred? How quickly can we reduce risk?



See how CrowdStrike Falcon for IT connects investigation and remediation with the PHP2Shell Detection and Remediation Content Pack, helping teams respond without assembling separate queries and remediation scripts.



In this video, you’ll see how Falcon for IT helps teams:

• Hunt for signs of exploitation with read-only queries that identify hosts needing further investigation

• Pinpoint exposure beyond version numbers, accounting for backported fixes and vulnerable processes that require a restart

• Preview planned changes with a dry run, deploy targeted patches, and confirm deployment in the Execution Log

• Apply partial mitigations to reduce exposure to known session-based attack paths while preparing to patch

• Track hunt results, hosts needing attention, and remediation activity in the PHP2Shell Hunt and Response Dashboard



An effective response requires more than a completed deployment. Partial mitigations do not replace patching, and suspected compromise may require incident response. By keeping findings, actions, and follow-up connected, Falcon for IT helps teams spend less time on handoffs and more time reducing risk.
